DOJ Faces Scrutiny Over Proposed Plea Deal with Boeing

Families of 737 MAX crash victims and advocacy groups demand accountability as Boeing's federal contracts remain secure.

Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco is under pressure to recuse herself due to past ties with Boeing.
The Justice Department's plea deal includes a $244 million fine and safety investments but avoids criminal penalties for executives.
Advocacy groups argue the deal fails to hold Boeing adequately accountable for safety violations.
Legal experts suggest Boeing's government contracts, especially in defense, will not be affected by the plea deal.
Victims' families criticize the agreement as another lenient deal that undermines justice and safety reforms.
